Return of the Swallow

"How?" Si Qin raised a corner of his lips and smiled sarcastically, "I thought the head of the Lu family would have some ideas, but he didn't expect that he would ask me when the matter came to pass?"

Lu Heng smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Khan, don't be ridiculous. I just assumed an official position in the Great Zhou Dynasty. In fact, the Lu family is just a merchant family, and I am just a merchant. Do you think, what can a merchant do? How knowledgeable is that?”

"You don't need to belittle yourself." Si Qin hugged his shoulders and said mockingly, "Now our Tatar warriors have been forced into a desperate situation. No matter how rich you are, you can't even buy food, grass, and transport bedding here. Don't you want to Do you want to contribute to this fight?"

Lu Heng smiled bitterly and sighed, turning to the desert in no man's land. He pointed to the west side and then to the east side. 33 novels are updated the fastest PC version:

"Over there, there is a city, and you can go straight into the capital. Over here, it is a desert. At this time of year, the weather in the desert is changing rapidly. We people have no food or drink, and entering this desert is a dead end. If If we don't move, the soldiers and horses of the Zhou Dynasty will directly press forward, and we may still have the strength to fight. If we retreat, we will either be buried in the desert or retreat directly to the capital."

Si Qin shook his head impatiently after hearing this, "Isn't it obvious what you said about the situation? Either retreat to the capital, or stand here and hold on for dear life. I want to ask, if it were you, how would you choose?"

Lu Heng put one hand behind his back and clenched his fist tightly.

"If it were me, I would naturally choose to carry it to death. Although I am not talented, I cannot allow the soldiers and horses I bring to retreat, causing the people in the city to suffer a military disaster."

"I don't see that you are still a benevolent and righteous man." There was a hint of ridicule in Siqin's words, and his eyes looking at Lu Heng's back also looked particularly cold, "I sometimes think about whether I will join forces with you to conquer the Great Zhou Dynasty this time. , have I fallen into your trap?"

"A trap?" Lu Heng's heart skipped a beat, but he still kept a calm face. He slowly turned around and looked at Siqin frankly, "What kind of trap can I set? Not to mention a hero like Khan who is both wise and brave. , if I really encountered any trap, I would have seen through it at a glance, how can I still be allowed to be so rampant today?"

"I don't want you to be arrogant." Si Qin smiled and approached Lu Heng, staring at Lu Heng with eyes like a falcon, and the smile on the corner of his lips added a lot of coldness, "You are really a good dog of the Zhou Dynasty. , even if you were hunted by your emperor, you still did not forget to join us in persuading Ben Khan that now is the best time to attack, taking advantage of the continuous natural and man-made disasters in the Great Zhou Dynasty, just in time to win it in one fell swoop. But now what? ?”

Si Qin suddenly took a step forward, forcing Lu Heng to take a step back.

"The natural disasters and man-made disasters you mentioned are not even half a containment effect. How big a famine is, but your Prince Zhongshun has the ability to get food for emergency relief. In the end, he can get so many soldiers and horses to fight against this Khan. .What do you call this? Is this the good time you said?"

Lu Heng's face was really calm, but he was already a little panicked in his heart.

Now that the war is unfavorable, Pang Xiao and Ji Zeyu are approaching fiercely, and they seem to be in danger of defeat. If the Tatars are defeated, Siqin really needs an outlet to vent his anger. He and Siqin had only a cooperative relationship, not much trust. Now that Siqin was suspicious of him, it was not surprising.

However, at the time of defeat, Si Qin was so suspicious that if he had the intention to kill him, those people under him might not be a match.

Lu Heng's thoughts were changing in the blink of an eye. He smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "Khan really thinks too much. I have long been a criminal of the Zhou Dynasty, and the target of the Emperor of Zhou is being hunted everywhere. If I deceive the Khan , what good does it do to myself?"

Si Qin stared into Lu Heng's eyes.

The suspicion in his eyes was undisguised. It was as if he didn't know whether to believe him or not.

Lu Heng added: "Khan, you can rest assured. My wife, my wife, and my servants, together, are just a few people, and we are all still living in the Khan's camp. If the Khan thinks that I am telling lies, You can take my life at any time, do you think I have any room for resistance with my little strength?"

Having said this, Si Qin's expression softened a little.

But with his ability, he was retreating steadily at this time, as if he had not taken advantage of the right time, place, and people. This kind of decline is really unacceptable.

Seeing that Si Qin's expression had softened, Lu Heng's anxious heart finally quietly returned to its original position, and he took a step forward and whispered: "Khan, actually I was just thinking, can I secretly send someone to Dadu to ask for help? If I can give him If the opponent surprises you and attacks from both front and back, there may be room for counterattack."

Si Qin looked deep in thought.

"Khan, if the Zhou army comes directly and our warriors are outnumbered, it will be difficult to deal with it."

Today, the Zhou Dynasty has 480,000 soldiers and horses, and they only came up with 200,000 elite soldiers after combing the country, and now more than half of them have been consumed due to battle losses. Victory with less is not unheard of in history, but if it happens to you, it is not that easy.

If not, Si Qin couldn't think of any other solution for a while.

But if he just listened to Lu Heng's suggestion, Si Qin felt like he was a puppet on strings, being led by the nose by the person in front of him.

"Ben Khan, think about it again."

After hearing this, Lu Heng stopped persuading him and handed him over.

Si Qin returned to his tent with a sullen face, and Lu Heng also quickly returned to his tent.

When Bian Ruohan saw Lu Heng coming back, he quickly stood up and rushed towards him: "You are back, go and tell them, I want to take a bath. They don't even have hot water here, how can I bear it without taking a bath!" 33 Novel First Release

Lu Heng was filled with worries, and this time he was even more on guard against Si Qin, fearing that Pang Xiao would be angry with him if Si Qin lost to him. Now that Bian Ruohan had come to interfere again, his heart was in a complete mess, adding to the chaos.

"What kind of place is this, where you can do whatever you want?"

Bian Ruohan stamped his feet, "What are you talking about here? You didn't bring me here with you in the first place! I'm your wife. Whatever I want, you have to try your best to satisfy me. If you can't satisfy it, it's your incompetence. This will Son, you’re telling me what’s wrong with me? I just wanted to take a bath, what’s wrong with me!” 33 novels are updated fastest on the mobile phone: https:/

"Bath, bath." Lu Heng grabbed Bian Ruohan's neck, held her head down and walked out of the tent door.

When he opened the curtain, Tatar soldiers followed him immediately.

Under their close surveillance, Bian Ruohan was so frightened that he couldn't speak for a while, and was just pinched by Lu Heng's neck and led straight away.

After staggering for a moment, Lu Heng pushed her to the ground.

Bian Ruohan fell to the ground with an "Oh!" and when she raised her head, what came into her sight was the endless sea of ​​sand.

The dark sky, dirty air, strong winds, and yellow sand flying all over the sky made people feel suffocated from the heart even if they didn't walk into the desert.
